Lexus of Seattle - December to Remember 2008
Texasmame replied to colecomaniac's topic in Atari 2600
Very cute. What, you didn't have at least TWO back in the day? Too bad they picked Centipede instead of a true 2600 classic, tho. -
Atari's Landfill Adventures, I now have the proof it's true.
Texasmame replied to Spud's topic in Atari 2600
History Detectives would be better suited. Yes, but do they BLOW STUFF UP?!? Think, man. THINK!!! -

Good show and good idea. There's no real "science" involved, but they may get to blow stuff up. -
As a matter of fact, he did have one of his own in there. Go back and go through the whole thing. Don't stop at the "404 - Not Found" page.... there is still a "NEXT" button at the bottom. And yes, he even ripped on his own. At least he's fair. Oh, my bad. I thought 404 was the end of the road.

He likes to knock 'em but I wonder if the guy ever tried to build one? I don't have much respect for those who are critical of something but have never tried it. I did. www.tinyurl.com/girlcab (NOT dial-up friendly!)

Comments regarding Atlantis Games Group and Tempest Xtreem
Texasmame replied to Kjmann's topic in Atari 8-Bit Computers
"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." - Teddy Roosevelt http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Man_in_the_Arena My modern day translation: You're doing it. They aren't. F 'em. -
Outstanding, thanx!
-
Anyone have a copy of this they can get me? Just found out the name here and need to play it again!!! Thanx!

Well, you do have shields that get drained. . . still, Robot Tank's damage system was very good. Oh, I think the "minefield" is their answer to BZ's missiles. They drop from the sky and move towards you - they just do it sloooooooowly. Good point about the shots on the radar, too.
-
It's in my top 3, too (Defender, Spy Hunter, Battlezone). Too bad this one is so easy.

It's been puzzling seeing the new "improvements" eBay has been making. Chuckwagon's situation is outright f'ing silly. Too tired to rant so I'll keep it short: eBay sucks.
-
Many more pics here, etc. and plenty of vids on Youtube. http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-d1-49-en-70-2z59.html Don't think they are even officially out yet, tho. . .

Any updates?

I think we've got a prodigy on our hands...
Texasmame replied to famicommander's topic in Atari 7800
Dear Sir, We will need video of this event to confirm. Thank you, The Management -
A bit of googling reveals nothing similar for Windows.
-
Is it possible to get the Stelladaptor to be recognized in windows as a mouse or other standard USB Human Interface Device? I wanted to use the paddles/joys for things other than Atari emus.

Always liked the light blue sky one. . . I had the pleasure of exchanging a few emails with him about a year ago. I always had the burning question "why no bomber or sats?" Thought it was due to memory constraints, and it was. He said there WAS an early version with them in it but, eventually, something had to go. And it was them.

Did you love the first game you got for your 2600?
Texasmame replied to Godzilla's topic in Atari 2600
First nonpack-in game was Slot Racers. Played it plenty. Don't touch it now but the thought of it still makes me smile. -
What have you actually PLAYED this week? New Top Ten
Texasmame replied to cvga's topic in Atari 2600
Warlords - 30 mins. Yars' - 10 mins. On my laptop with the Stelladaptor - does that count? -
That's because Rom Hunter lifted the picture from this auction. Yes, but did he lift the ROM , what game is on this cart is the question? Label would suggest Vanguard; what is your guess? H.E.R.O. ???
-
Possible scam as well - exact same photo as the one on the identifying page, only the auction's one isn't cropped. Odd. . . AUCTION: http://i23.ebayimg.com/04/i/001/1c/29/6d6a_1.JPG ID PAGE: http://www.atarimania.com/zoom_frame.php?T...amp;NUM_IMAGE=0 Note the exact same woodgrain positioning in the lower right corner. . .
-
Yup, that's it. Good job on the I.D.!
-
Outstanding in quantity, quality and presentation. Have we a winner here???
